Gravitational Collapse of Self-similar Perfect fluid with Scalar function
Abstract
The self-similar spherically symmetric perfect fluid space-time with scalar function incorporating linear equation of state is studied. The investigation of gravitational collapse conditions on the space-time determines that scalar function has an imaginary form φ(X) = i \; αo \; (X), (X) being a non-zero real valued function of self-similar variable X. The gravitational collapse of cloud ends into the formation of black hole or naked singularity according to the choice of physically reasonable initial data relative to the linear equation of state.
